"The rain may lead to delays and cancellations of some sporting events and could make moving into a new home, apartment or dorm quite difficult," according to the report. "The swath of heaviest rain is likely to extend from parts of eastern Pennsylvania and New Jersey to southeastern New York state, including much of the Hudson Valley, and southern and southeastern New England."

The wet weather is thanks to a non-tropical storm expected to form and stall over the central Appalachians.

A break in the rain is expected in the middle of next week, but another slow-moving storm may bring even more rain into next weekend, AccuWeather reports.
